I was so excited when I bought these Smart Plugs because as a quadriplegic they’d make my life so very much more accessible and help give me greater independence.Sadly I can’t get them to connect to my Wi-Fi.I tried for an entire week checking that I had the correct specification on my Wi-Fi.I tried every possible way but sadly no matter what I tried they just would not connect.I did contact the helpline and tried what they suggested but still no joy.After that I’d lost the will to go on.Disappointingly I decided after the week constant failures to return them back to Amazon which was difficult excepting defeat as I was so excited with the prospect of these Smart Plugs making my life so much more accessible and giving me greater independence but sadly it wasn’t to be 👎😔♿️

Fantastic value product. You get 4 plugs in the box which is really useful.They are very simple to set up using the instructions given. Just plug them in and either connect manually, or using the app. A further set up stage allowed them to work perfectly via Alexa, so they integrate with all of my other home automation devices.The plug is reasonably compact, especially compared to some of the older devices and so they dont stand out too much. When they switch on and off, there is a small audible click which is quite handy, especially during the set up phase.

Good product. Is not the first smart plug I test and this one worked perfectly, easy to set up and use anytime. Either manually, with the phone or with an assistant (Alexa) it worked perfectly.

Easy to install and get working with Alexa. The automatic detection worked for me, but the manual method is no big deal if you need to use it. £10 per plug is reasonable value but not exceptional.

These seem pretty standard smart plugs, I’ve had 6 different makes and flavours now and they have all been very similar in design and almost identical in features.I added it to the smart life app the same as most smart home things by holding down the power button until the correct flashing then adding on the app.The plug looks pretty good with the smooth design and it is a little bulkier than some other plugs with the same basic functions but it’s not too bulky to look daft.I use this as a plug for my av amp and for a subwoofer speaker. It has a loud click to this one so you do get an audible confirmation as well which is good for the subwoofer plugged in behind the TV cabinet but it’s quite loud for a lamp next to you. I’d want a quieter one say in a bedroom.Right now it £20 for 2 or £30 for 4 which is quite a difference but I wouldn’t say that great value for something with basic functions and a loud click when my last lot were £8 each and very quiet.Middle of the road really, nothing special about these but they do work every time.
